Transfer HotlineLatest transfer news, rumours and suggestions for new Palace players. Includes outgoing transfers and news on released players.

Wilf's latest Instagram story was him saying "Sometimes you've got to think about what works for you and not for others" This was written against a red and white background.......

How does it work for him to join that basket case of mediocrity that is modern Arsenal. When was the last time they even improved a player significantly there? The coaching and management of that club is so stagnant and has been for best part of a decade. Would be an awful club for him to join.

I really hope he doesn't leave in January, we desperately need him to try and keep us up, we all know it, including him, would leave a bit of a bad taste, which would be such a shame. If he left at the end of the season, I'd of course be disappointed but would wish him well.

Thinking about it the only time I've ever been really gutted by a player leaving was Wright, it was the beginning of the end of an era, Wilf leaving would feel the same.

I hope we keep him. Absolutely fantastic player and Mr Crystal Palace.

Has so much drive and passion and is a nightmare for other teams to play against. We are lucky to have such a class premiership player and should enjoy him whilst we have him.

That said I think if an absolutely ridiculous bid comes in we might sell and use the money to sign a decent gk, a replacement winger (with a good cross in his arsenal to feed Benteke) and another forward.

It'll gather pace if we stay bottom for much longer. He wants nothing more than to play for us but so much weight on his shoulders, we are a one man team, I wouldn't blame him for moving on from this shambolic season. Constant relegation scraps are not where Wilf belongs.

Hopefully we'll go on a run and finally move on some players that simply aren't good enough.

Sissoko was at a club who could afford to keep him, that's why they got £30m. They were in a strong bargaining position.

If we go down we will need to sell and £40m would be a fair price. Taking the Palace glasses off you have to be realistic, Wilf already wanted to leave once before to go to Spurs. Relegation will certainly mean he will want to leave.

I would look to offload in January as we will still probably be in the relegation zone but still in the Prem. We have to get the max price for him. £40m rising to £50-60m

We would get £40m even if we went down. And we are not going down anyway.

We are in a better financial position than Newcastle were. If we want to keep him then we could but the history of the board would suggest they would sell as it is the financially prudent thing to do. Either was it is irrelevant as we are not getting relegated.
